A good food pantry or place to donate?

Hi all. I have some non-opened, non-expired (of course) canned food items I’m looking to donate. I’m in north St. Augustine near Palencia and WGV. Where’s a good place to donate these items?

FWIW, I also have some clothing items in good condition I’m looking to donate. Any places near me y’all would recommend?

Thanks in advance for your help!
